The sphere was first featured in season 6 of Clone Wars, which was aired as the list episodes on Netflix. Truthfully, I actually skipped this episode when it came out after I found out Jar Jar Binks was the focus.
In the episode, the sphere was shattered , which explains why the reward in the game is called the Bardottan Shard.
